There are 2 easy ways to do this:
The more easy is
#dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
The other one is editing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
in your screen section you have:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
after editing you must have:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
